Who will be racing in the SV class again in 2007?
I've put a post up on the New Era forum to find out if we can actually race for another championship in 2007 - the SV650 one.

Some of you would have raced in that this season, but nobody scored points (not even the SV's when they turned up). I'm assuming this is due to the very low numbers of bike entered.

So, I've asked the question, that if it's run again, and if 15 of us race in it - for extra races/value for money during a weekend - if it will be a 'proper' championship i.e. we score points and actually race for something.

Who would be interested?

Hopefully it will only cost £25 per race to enter (£50 for both per day).

I might be tempted to turn out on an 800

2 cylinders are all you need but 3 is an excellent compromise

I won't tell if you don't. It looks very similar to a 620s

Is there a minimum number required to make a points qualifying race? It could be a third (or fourth) 620 race!!!

Might enter a couple, but not many.
I'd rather enter with the SV's/f400/hornets for a bit of extra practice than try it on in SOT... Less chance of getting lapped so as not to lose a lap fof the session, and there's a few more bikes on equal ground to race against.
Extra races are £30 each next year aren't they?

is this £30 per extra class (ie 2 races) or per race?
can you just enter the one (say first) race of the extra class.

£30 for two extra races in a day, I'm in! points or none......
